Welding Engineering Technology (473)The Welding Engineering Technology BS degree prepares stu-dents for professional careers in a wide range of welding industries including: shipbuilding, agriculture, heavy equipment, automotive, aerospace, motorized recreation equipment, industrial equipment, material handling, welding equipment, etc. Welding engineers are involved in a variety of activities such as design, automation, inspec-tion, quality, problem solving, teamwork, improving manufacturing efficiencies, sales, marketing, trouble-shooting, etc. The Welding En-gineering Technology degree requires students who enjoy a hands-on approach as well as the challenge of engineering. Students in Welding Engineering Technology will learn the science and language of weld-ing and engineering so that they will be able to span the gap between design and manufacturing. The Welding Engineering Technology BS degree is available on the Fall/Winter and Winter/Spring tracks.

Welding Fabrication and Technology (374)This 2-year associate program provides hands-on training in weld-ing and manufacturing processes. The curriculum includes a solid foundation in welding theory, manufacturing processes, and material science. This program develops skills and is designed for employment in the welding, manufacturing, or fabrication industries. The associ-ate program in Welding Fabrication and Technology is available on the Fall/Winter and Winter/Spring tracks.

General InformationMathematics and physical sciences are critical components of any manufacturing technology curriculum. The normal entry-level mathematics class for the welding programs is Pre-Calculus (FDMAT 109) or College Algebra (FDMAT 110). Entering freshman students should consult with their advisor to ensure they are beginning with the mathematics course for which they are prepared. Students with weak mathematics skills are advised to enroll in a preparatory mathematics course to strengthen their skills. The normal entry-level chemistry course is Introduction to General Chemistry (CHEM 101).

It is imperative that students develop and follow a plan of study that will allow them to complete all the required courses within the credit hour limits. Students should consult with their advisor/mentor early to make sure their educational plan is correct. Sample curriculum flow charts can be found on the department web page at http://www2.byui.edu/MechEngr/.
